What YOUNGEST is

JYP Entertainment released YOUNGEST on July 27, 2026 and identifies it as Young K’s second solo studio album. Shut The Door is the title track, and the record arrived almost three years after Letters with notes. The permanent Young K profile carries his December 19, 1993 birth date, calculated age, DAY6 role, solo debut and career timeline so this release story does not duplicate the full biography.

The complete tracklist

The official order is: 1. Marionette; 2. Shut The Door; 3. F world; 4. Hey Honey; 5. 응원가; 6. SPIKE; 7. Yonge St.; 8. million reasons; 9. 우리가 헤어질 100가지 이유 (with JINJOO of DNCE); 10. Drivin’ into Hell; 11. whatever; 12. Goodbye, Love; 13. 집으로 향한다; 14. 안개꽃; 15. 작업실에서 커피를. Korean titles and official styling remain unchanged.

Writing, composition and collaborators

JYP explicitly says Young K participated in writing and composing all 15 tracks. The project’s creative collaborators include Hong Ji-sang, Lee Woo-min “collapsedone” and Sunwoojunga, while JINJOO of DNCE appears on track nine. This article does not assign any collaborator a producer or arranger credit on a specific song unless the official credit sheet clearly does so.

From Eternal to a second studio album

Eternal marked his September 6, 2021 solo debut, and Letters with notes became his first studio album on September 4, 2023. YOUNGEST follows roughly two years and ten months later and extends the work of a songwriter and DAY6 bassist. The profile lists these solo releases with dates, types and sources without mixing them into the group discography.

What the official page does not support

The official source confirms the format, date, tracklist and broad creative involvement, but it does not justify invented chart results, sales, a linked tour or missing credits. A useful later update would require a more granular official credit page or a JYP promotion notice. The September 27 revision preserves the URL and original publication date while replacing generic copy with verifiable detail.
